Abstract

The invention relates to isolated genes encoding Xenorhabdus toxin complex (TC) proteins, and transgenic plants and host cells expressing Xenorhabdus toxin complex (TC) proteins and having resistance to insects.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified

1. An isolated polynucleotide that encodes a protein that has toxin activity against an insect, wherein said protein is at least 95% identical to SEQ ID NO: 11. 
     
     
       2. A plant cell comprising the polynucleotide of  claim 1 . 
     
     
       3. The plant cell of  claim 2 , wherein said cell is in a seed. 
     
     
       4. A transgenic plant comprising a plurality of cells of  claim 2 . 
     
     
       5. A purified culture of microbial cells, said cells comprising the polynucleotide of  claim 1 .
